Business Owner

Which is more important for a well-run organization?

You probably already know that June is Russ Wilson’s last month at Wilson Lumber. It’s been an emotional month, a good month, and a bad month for all.

Music tastes, must like sleep patterns, are based on one person and their experience.

I’m a child of the '80s, meaning I have a firmly held belief that '80s music is superior to all other decades.

When I wrote last month about the economy being uncertain, I was hoping to be wrong. While there are reasons to be optimistic, uncertainty still seems to rule the day.

Wilson Lumber Company is pleased to announce several organizational changes as we continue to grow in Alabama’s fastest-growing housing market. 

It feels like trying to set company goals for 2023 is an exercise in futility.

Begin with a Big Idea and work your way down to what it means in your daily life to ensure you prioritize what is most important and that you stay focused on it.

What is the leader’s job description? What is it you do that no one else can do?

The culture at Wilson Lumber can be healthy, encouraging, and challenging; or it can be depressing and toxic. Either way, we owners are in charge of it.

When we take our guard down, stop being fake, and just be real with one another, you know what happens? Trust is built.

Wilson Lumber has been named a 2021-22 Top Tiger by Auburn University and the Harbert College of Business.
